WASHINGTON, Nov 18 (Reuters) - Hundreds of people who say
they worry oil that would be carried the Keystone XL pipeline
will accelerate climate change marched around the White House on
Sunday, hoping to revive a movement credited with slowing down
the permit process for the crude oil project.

The protesters changed "Hey, Obama! We don't want no climate
drama" and said they hope President Barack Obama's
election-night promise to address climate change means he will
reject the pipeline. It needs a presidential permit to cross
into the United States from Canada.

"We're interested in sending a clear message to Obama," said
Molly Pugh from nearby Alexandria, Virginia, marching with her
husband and 2-year-old daughter, who rode in a stroller.

Pugh said she was deeply disappointed that Obama failed to
talk about climate change during the recent presidential
election campaign, addressing it only in his acceptance speech.

Sunday's protest drew far fewer people than a rally a year
ago against TransCanada Corp's project, when thousands
linked arms and encircled the White House.
